John Deere f1145 front mower's engine stops

My John Deere f1145 front mower's engine stops when the park brake is off. It also shuts off when the pto switch is turned on. The engine runs fine when the park brake is engaged. It will continue to run while no one is sitting on the tractor.

You must be in the seat to run the mower ... safety interlocks ... operator presence control is what it is called.

I have a john deere z225 and it starts and my hours meter is not lit up but when I disengage parking break it dies,, if I move the arms it dies and if I engage PTO it dies, can anyone help?

t sounds like there may be an issue with the safety switches on your John Deere Z225 lawn mower. These safety switches are designed to prevent the engine from running if certain conditions are not met, such as if the parking brake is not engaged, the arms are not in the proper position, or the PTO is engaged.
Here are some things you can check:
  1. Check the parking brake switch to ensure that it is properly engaged. If the switch is faulty, it may not be registering that the parking brake is engaged and will cause the engine to die when you disengage the parking brake.
  2. Check the arm switches to make sure they are properly positioned. If the switches are faulty or out of position, they can cause the engine to die when you move the arms.
  3. Check the PTO switch to ensure that it is properly engaged. If the switch is faulty, it may not be registering that the PTO is engaged and will cause the engine to die when you engage the PTO.
  4. Check the wiring and connections for all the safety switches. Make sure they are not damaged or loose, as this can also cause the engine to die.
If you have checked all the safety switches and wiring and everything appears to be in working order, there may be a deeper electrical issue with the mower that will require further diagnosis

Why wont john deere stx 30 pto wont engage

Most of these mowers have a safety switch between the PTO switch and clutch. A safety switch or relay is most likely the problem. Hope this will help ya.
